Words to "My Weakness Is Too Strong"

Post by Gary C. Dygert »

Does anybody have the words to "My Weakness Is Too Strong"? I'll trade my Buddy Emmons decoder ring. ;-)

Go to a steel convention. You'll know the words, chords, and three different leads before you come home :D !

I know the words to it as long as you play it in the key of 'C'

Ray Pennington sings this song on the Ray Pennington/Buddy Emmons albums. I think these albums are still available on the Internet.

MY WEAKNESS IS TOO STRONG

1. Please don't look at me that way unless you're sure
I'm the one you want, not what you'll settle for
I'm weak where you're concerned, I don't know
right from wrong
And I'm afraid my weakness is too strong

2. When I look into those eyes, I lose control
Well it's strange that you could have this
kind of hold on me
I'm standing much too close now to the danger
zone
And I'm afraid my weakness is too strong

Instrumental, repeat verse 2 then tag

Tag I'm afraid my weakness is too strong.

Verse 2- "When I Look Into----" etc is actually the bridge of the song. If playing in the key of C, the bridge (:when I look---") is in the key of Eb- then it resolves back to C with the line "I'm standing much too close, now" ----etc. Hopes this helps, and don't screw you up too much!
